The jury indicated that they were impressed by a.s.r.'s HR policy: 'It is impressive and is consistently implemented throughout the organisation. a.s.r. is an inspiring example of continuing to facilitate, monitor well-being and keep in touch with employees, because they are the real capital of the organization.'
